My Buddies and I hunt PA's south zone which does not open until the 19th but we are going upstate to my families cabin this weekend for the North zone opener. Our buddy we meet at school has an absolutely beautiful pond up there and there have been a couple ducks using it. Hopefully we can knock down a couple but I more interested in just being out in the field again taking in one of gods sunrises with my best friends and dog. Plus being at the cabin i may be able to sneak into the bow stand for a little bit haha. But good luck to everyone as the season gets rolling! I cant wait

There are thousands and thousands of ducks on the refuge. They are stacked.Problem is...on opening day the yayhoos will shoot early and drive them away while its still pitch black dark.For this reason I quit doing openers many years ago.Sigh...I will go this year and watch, take notes, and NARC OUT all the early shooters I can.Its called "hunting hunters who cheat".

Opening day here is still over a month away. Gotta take out some deer before the ducks start to show up! First duck hunt will be the second weekend in MO. Gotta duck/pheasant hunt planned with my dad. Hoping it'll be a great time!

Dang! Can almost feel a hint of anxiety. Our opener over month a way.may be hunting ducks or may be enjoying a sunrise with a river bank breakfast. One thing for sure it will be a CIRCUS here. With people camping out days before it opens. Ain't got time for that!!

There are only two types of people in the world, those who love duck hunting and those who never have duck hunted.
